Hi All,
I have a password file , which has all the passwords words encrypted with the Crypt Function
I know that Crypt uses one-way algorithm to generate the encryptions and PHP has no Decrypt function
, ( but can it be developed to have one ?)
But I am eager to know whether it is really impossible to decrypt the passwords , if possible , how
it caqn be done. like salts and all
Can somebody *please* throw more light on Crypt() and Encryption and Decryption in this thread.
Thanks,
Nikhil
